Bus drivers can be very strict. Many won't tolerate unruly behaviour aboard their vehicles, and they won't tolerate people who want to get off anywhere other than the designated stops. Regular commuters know this, but there will still be one person who tests the boundaries. 

An elderly man in China decided he would make his own rules when, after he realised he needed to get off urgently, he jumped out of the window

Reportedly, the elderly man remembered that he had left some of his belongings on the side of the road before getting on the bus, and needed to go back and get them. When the driver refused to open the door, likely because the bus was already moving and the road was busy, the man took matters into his own hands.

Displaying remarkable agility for a man of his age, the man grabbed onto bars inside the bus and hoisted himself out and into traffic, then proceeded to weave between the cars. 

There's no word on whether he was able to safely retrieve his belongings but it is safe to assume that his daring stunt meant that he had to wait a while for another bus to come around.
